Villain of my own novel

'When did I even reach Rank-SS?' I pondered, because I didn't know that I had already reached Rank-SS, while staring at seven different status windows in front of me.

"E-E-Eshwar! I can't believe you choose to be an elf." Katline's flustered voice sounded I glanced at her, and she instantly turned a brighter shade of red in embarrassment. I got confused by how flustered she was and glanced at Katharine, who had the same exact reaction.

"What's wrong and what race did you guys choose?" I asked.

"Y-yu-you t-turned more h-h-handsome, s-so much so that my h-heart is a-aching, a-and I ch-ch-chose to remain human." Katline could somewhat answer even while extremely flustered.

"Really?" I asked, and Katline nodded while gasping (?) for air. I frowned in confusion and glanced at Katharine, whose hand was crawling down towards her....

"Katharine!!" Katline followed my gaze and yelled before her friend embarrassed herself.

".... maybe we should return and find a solution for this....." I said and paused mid-sentence with a deep frown on my face because "just now" I felt something.

"Eshwar?" Though still flustered, Katline frowned at my strange actions and called out.

"I felt a human's presence!" I yelled and dashed back at the direction of where we walked in from to "help" the outsider, who was at the opposite direction.

"What!!" Katharine exclaimed and followed after me.

"....how...did another human other than us, enter? Shouldn't it be a random gate?" Katline observed closely and mumbled with a deep frown on her face.

I smirked inwardly. I had hoped either of them would notice, and I purposefully ran back in the same direction we entered, even though this "outsider" was in the opposite direction. This way, they won't properly notice even if I change the direction in the middle and circle around before reaching the outsider's location, they won't know about it, since this gate is completely new and there is no proper information about it and there never will be, and be suspicious of this outsider thinking that they followed us in.

'The spawning grounds are able to store monsters only if they are killed by players in gates and dungeons like these, and are completely random, no body can "follow" anybody into these gates, using these spawning grounds and dungeons, I plan to cause many dungeon overflows.' I remembered my plan and the information Eunomia had given me; it was also the reason I'm hunting in the spawning grounds rather than the sh*t ton of gates that are spawned outside. If humans realise that fact and stop hunting, then everything that is being caused by the monsters may stop, but I can't let them be like that since I have no intention of stopping once I set my mind to it.

'Destroy the sh*thole 'they' are trying to protect!'

A few minutes of circling around later.

"Somewhere around there! Let's go!!" I yelled and directed them towards the location of the outsider.

"Are you sure? We've been running around for minutes!!" Katline's doubtful yell sounded from behind. I could feel suspicion in Katharine's gaze too, but it was just that she didn't voice it, and...

"Aaaaaaa!!!" A woman's voice filled with anguish resounded from the direction I was taking them, and that cleared up all the doubts and suspicions they had.

".... sorry for doubting you...." Katline's apologetic voice sounded from behind, but I ignored it as I didn't hear it and paced up by a notch, leaving them behind.

'Expand mana senses.' I ordered, and my entire surroundings were visible, like I myself had a 360-degree view.

'Not to be ungrateful or anything, but does this order authority even make sense? I have no mana, right? Then how the f**k is this mana sense working? Aren't I the mana's centre point? Shouldn't I have some mana that allows me to control or order the mana surrounding me? Am I thinking too much?' I questioned myself as I noticed Katline biting her lower lip and lowering her head.

TRRRRUM

"!" I opened my eyes wide in surprise. My entire body trembled violently for an instant, and since I "knew" and "understood" karma completely, I now knew about something called "Aether" that karma informed me about.

The aether is an energy residing in the Blind Eternities, although it is present in some planes to a lesser or greater degree. The Blind Eternities is a term commonly used by planeswalkers to refer to the space between planes in the Multiverse, which is filled with chaotic energies.

The aether takes part in summoning creatures; when they materialize, they are pulled from the aether. Raw aetheric matter is referred to as the very stuff of the cosmos. Aether shapes the natural world into swirling patterns and is harvested and refined in order to fuel the various constructs and inventions.

'You bit*h, aren't you a goddamn thing that's "absolute?" Why the f**k are you stuck on my soul? Can't you get the f**k out and do what you want?' I asked karma. Because it just answered the question, I was asking myself.

'Go kill some gods and take their goddamn place to be ruled under the system, you f**kturd! Get off from my soul!' I grumbled at Karma inwardly.

I had also learned something about "the right," which is supposedly something only I have and that I am not bound by time and stuff like that, but I couldn't care less about such things; this goddamn parasite-like thing is stuck on my soul and has been trying to corrupt it ever since.

'Anyway, about the aether, that I have in my control. Couldn't I use it more proficiently with my creator's domain, which has a space manipulation skill? Since aether is the space between planes. I certainly could try that.' I thought inwardly.

"There!" I yelled and pointed at the outsider, who had a slightly relieved expression as soon as her gaze landed on me. And within a few seconds, Katline and Katharine rushed next to me.

SLASH (4x)

THUD

Katharine slashed the heads of the wolves below the tree where the outsider hung on. I jumped high up until I was able to reach the woman, gently picked her up, carried her like a princess, and jumped down while trying to manipulate the aether to slow down my speed instead of directly ordering it.

I took out a higher-grade healing potion from my subspace, popped off the lid, and fed it to her as gently as I could. I couldn't let her die as I needed information about whatever she knows, since Eunomia sounded so serious yet confused when she asked me to check this woman's memories out myself.

"Eshwar. Is she alright?" Katline's voice sounded from behind and she had a nervous look on her face. I glanced at her and glanced back at the woman, who was in my arms with her eyes wide open in surprise.

Gradually a perverted smile appeared on her beautiful elf face; though it felt perverted, it also had a certain allure to it, anyway....

"I... don't know, she's a bit strange..." I replied and raised my left hand to slap the woman's cheek lightly, hoping that would snap her out of her daze.

PATTT

"...."

"...."

".... She didn't die, did she?"
